conflicts, technical architecture and innovation, the evolution of
copyright, private vs. public interests in Net policy-making, lobbying
and the law, and more.

YACC - (Yet Another Cool Conference)

FMC's Kristin Thomson (via email): "On Tuesday, April 12, the Future of Music Coalition is hosting a one-day DC Policy Day, where we will apply a laser-beam focus on four critical topics emerging in the courts, Congress, and at the Copyright Office: (1) digital audio broadcasting and the future of radio, (2) low power FM and community voices, (3) health insurance and musicians, and (4) copyright in the courts and Congress, including discussions about the Grokster case and orphan works."
